What makes the MedSlant pillows better than the less expensive pillows? Why are these pillows so much more expensive and are they worth the extra money?

MedSlant is longer than the less expensive pillows on the market. To be effective for acid reflux relief, snoring relief, and help with sleep apnea, you need to be supported through the torso. A pillow that is 24" long actually makes these things worse because it causes your body to bend or fold in the middle and puts extra pressure on your stomach. Also, there are many different qualities of foam. MedSlant is made of high density, hypo allergen polyureathane foam. MedSlant's value is that it works.

No, they are really made for individual people. I mean, I ordered 2 purposely for myself and my boyfriend and the way these type of pillows are designed, I mean you might "fit" both in one but it would probably defeat the purpose. You might as well have an extra spacious lazy boy chair. In bed, I don't think it would be comfortable.

Hi C.Wood, I'm no pillow expert but I did take a moment to view the description of "My Pillow". Most significant difference is "My Pillow" is made of cotton. After time and repeated use I have found that a cotton filled pillow will not hold it's original shape and texture. My Pillow's price is significantly higher. After several months of usage I stand by the purchase my Conforma Pillow. Best investment I've ever made.

Actually I like this one (Australian) better, the other one came from Dr. Mercola....but it cost over $500 (came with two pillows).However, I just now noticed some of the stitching is coming loose in the Australian...

I just ordered the small pillows a few days ago. They should arrive soon. I have the bedspread and shams....and LOVE them,,,,keep trying. Look into other companies on the web. Try: TOWNHOUSE LINENS...you'll find them there.

The pillow is pretty thick and hard...too hard for me. I have never used it and have been wanting to sell it on Craigs List. I have had neck surgery and have always liked using a thin down pillow that I could bunch up under my neck for support where I needed it. Want to buy my pillow at a good price?

This is not a question for me to answer, I have no idea what the price of the pillow is now. You need to ask Amazon. I know I love my pillow, and its worth every penny I paid, & I don't even remember what I paid, I only remember how much I spend on a bad pillow. I think for the 1st time in my life, I don't have to sleep with 2 pillows, this one is enough! Sorry I couldn't help you!

I am a hairstylist for 28 years so I have had pain in shoulders and neck for many years and my husband broke his neck 2 years ago, so when we were on vacation we had the best night sleep. That morning drinking coffee I found the same pillows online and ordered them. The pillows actually were at my house before we made it home. We LOVE them!!!! They were a bit pricey but well worth it. I still have the pain but sleep much better.

It's hard to answer as I have not tried the other pillow. However, I was a little disappointed with the Cabeau. Using it as a pillow worked for me, however, as long as it was just bunched up and not around my neck. On the other hand, it really works for some people

Yes, that is true. One needs to purchase slightly oversize pillowcases or get them directly from TemPur Pedic. Personally, I find my pillow too hard but I am finally getting used to it. Given the fact these pillows cost a fortune, I cannot justify replacing it.

The firmness/hardness of the pillow. Gentle is softer and standard is rather firm. I bought standard and found it to be considerably firmer than my tempurpedic and so did not like it at all. I should have purchased the gentle.

The pillow is heavier than a down or down-alternative pillow. It doesn't seem as heavy as a typical memory foam pillow, and is definitely more comfortable. You can "fluff" it a bit.

My first pillow came from a chiropractor and it was called chiroflow. But then Mediflow took over and to my knowledge the only one you can buy is the mediflow. The mediflow is identical to the chiroflow I originally had, and you will like the mediflow just fine.

I've had both. Gentle is softer, as stated. I prefer the standard because it doesn't flatten out as much over time. However, it is hard and if you like a softer (ie, feather pillow), then go with the gentle. I feel like these pillows only last 6-12mos anyway, so try one hardness, and if you don't like it, buy the other and try it next time. There's not enough difference between the two to make you really not like either one.

I have only bought this one brand of pillow from Amazon so I cannot help you with comparing it -however I can tell you that it is a well-made product, good-quality and I received it on time and felt that I had gotten my money's worth. I would buy from this company again. Hope this helps!

I have been using these pillows for about five years. I recently purchased a pair for our guest bedroom. I have only bought (and replaced) the quilted pillow covers. I have to say that neither my husband nor I suffers from allergies (nor have we ever), though we live in an area that is awful for many people. I suppose a lot depends on your sensitivity level. I hope this helps a bit.

I love latex pillows. I feel like I'm sleeping on a cloud. That being said, I have the high loft plush pillow and I think it's pretty high, and maybe alittle firm. I wish I had gone with the low loft. I think it will soften up some as time goes on as is the case with my last latex pillow. I am still using that one and really dont sleep much on this high loft pillow...I will eventually tho! When the old one wears out =-)
